just saw this and nearly wet myself, its a genuine trailer, was on one of the bbc telly channels, ffs, how good is this? i recon they should make the whole next series like this, now THAT would be funny!!

Saw three eps of 'LOM' on the spin last night as I had them recorded while I was down the gym. Not bad. Starting to get a little predictable as with many detective series: the culprit is always the person you are least supposed to suspect.

The main thing that's keeping me hanging on is 'what the hell happened to Tyler? Why is he there?' I don't think it will be answered at the end of this series though as there is meant to be a one-off set in the 80s.

So they were all .... and Gene Hunt was... and then that happened at the end? Yet it makes sense. I find it worked rather well, given the habit of a lot of sci-fi/magical realism depending on what you want to call it of not tying up any ends in any matter whatsoever.

Fairly consistent internal logic I think, though one would have to watch it all from the start to be sure. Also definitely getting shades of Paradise Lost from that Jim Keats fellow.

Sorry for the double post.

They found him wandering round Regent's Park with a cheap bottle of sherry...

And like a fool I mixed them and it strangled up my mind, and now people just get uglier and I have no sense of time...

I wasn't that keen on the ending. It was obvious it was last minute writing so they had an ending nobody was suspecting. If you watch Life On Mars and Ashes To Ashes you'll find loads of things that contradict the ending too
